If you are training in mixed martial
arts, then having a sound grasp of ground fighting techniques is
essential for an all-around game. A close range technique, coupled with
a decent striking ability allows the fighter to be confident in all
situations. Submission wrestling or submission grappling allows the
smaller fighter to negate much of the reach and weight advantage of
larger opponents.
Being proficient in these techniques requires dedicating time in training your cardiovascular fitness. Drilling particular moves so they are second nature, and working this into regular sparring, so that you are a step closer to performing them in a real situation is essential for submission grappling. Submission wrestling concentrates on being in control over your opponent and not bludgeoning them into submission. Cardiovascular fitness is very important in submission wrestling.
It is easy to get gassed, or be too breathless after a couple of minutes of work. This can make all the difference, when most grappling techniques require you to move at speed. Working on your fitness with a form of intense cardiovascular training is important. Circuit training, barbell complexes, interval training will help develop the endurance to go through a bout. It is one area that can be improved upon without a training partner and vital if you are to become a proficient fighter.
Technique in submission grappling and submission wrestling is developed from intensive drilling of clinch positions, joint locks, chokes and take downs. Eventually, drills should encompass a speedy and efficient transition from a clinch to a submission, while maintaining control over your own balance and your opponent. Not only should the technique to entering a clinch, or a submission be drilled, but also the counter and escape techniques. However, it is far better to teach and master the submission technique first, before learning a counter, so that you have confidence in the drill. There are a myriad of different techniques from different positions. Drilling the techniques over and over allows them to become second nature, and allow you the confidence to rapidly and fluidly move from one position to the next.
The last component of working in a technique is to transition into light sparring so that you can practice your submission grappling and submission wrestling techniques into competitive situations. Sparring will teach you how to conserve your energy and teach you when to use certain techniques. Sparring can be set up to ensure that a certain technique is used and practiced. For example, practicing take downs and transitions will be trained if the sparring starts with the training partners standing apart. It is important that the sparring sessions that you do are structured, so that you use what you have learned, rather than allowing sessions to degenerate.
training sessions are typically divided into cardiovascular conditioning, drilling, and then a quick session for sparring. This helps prevent injury, and gets both body and mind warmed up for the sparring session. It is worthwhile training against a variety of different partners, those who are bigger, or smaller, and of different standards.
